Indian Islamic Clerics Issue Fatwa Against Hot Receptionists

I don't really get why Islamists always ban those best equipped to do the job they are from? Dawn:

According to the Press Trust of India, the Darul Uloom Deoband has issued a fatwa against the appointment of Muslim women as receptionists. The seminary issued the fatwa after a Pakistan-based company submitted a query on Nov 29 regarding the appointment of Muslim women as receptionists, said the report.

... the post of receptionist required constant interactions with people, and thus should not be practiced.
